Tried ML with a couple of visiting Aussie friends on Friday night - nice burgers and wings, good music and very friendly staff. Loved the beer too - tinned beer may not be every puristbore's cup of elderflower but the ice cold ones we had (in chilled glasses) were bang on for a surprisingly warm October eve.


Just wish they'd add a steak option.

We had lunch there today, again really good.


But surprised it was almost empty on a Saturday lunchtime!


Oh and we sat in the window. And saw a friend going by on a bus, so that was fun, especially as he saw us too and waved.


Oh damn I forgot, we are supposed to sit in the window so as to look cool,

must do better. At least I had my contact lenses in and clean hair this time :))

    • I imagine Franco Manca's business dropped off quite a bit when Yard Sale opened (though isn't Yard Sale delivery only?) But in any case, both of those are chains.
    • Thanks. I'll call them shortly as I could get there without the car.  That's good of Sainsburys! We've done the apple pie and tart thing, an ongoing muesli thing and the coleslaw thing - just not sure what effect all the sugars are having on our digestive tracts.  If we were in Somerset and had a press, I'd consider it. Can't be that diffcult, can it?
    • One time Sainsbury's delivered 6 bags of apples instead of 6 single apples which I couldn't possibly get through. I phoned Pecan in Peckham to ask if they would accept them despite their website stating no fresh foods. I must have phoned at just the right time as they were happy to accept them. Sainsburys gave me a refund so the donation was courtesy of them. Or you could experiment with all kinds of apple recipes and write a blog about it
    • There's a food bank off Dog Kennel Hill. Albrighton Community Fridge. https://www.albrightoncommunityfridge.org/ I'm sure they would welcome them, but maybe check first, as they don't actually mention fresh fruit on their website? But apples aren't that perishable. Drop off seven days a week 9 - 5. Be warned if you are going by car, parking can be very difficult, easiest if there are two of you so one person can take the food in while the other can move the car if necessary.
